Advent Calendar!

Although Hope was around last year for Christmas, she really wasn't old enough to participate much in holiday traditions. So everything really feels like a "first" this time around.

Yesterday, our Advent calendars arrived, as they always do, in the mail from Grammy and Pappy. One is to be shared by me and Bryan, and the other was clearly marked for Hope. We started a day late, but no matter - we are caught up now, and with the first as "demonstration," we got a little more of a reaction out of door #2. Thanks, G&P!

Lillian turned 2 this year and is all about the advent calendar. She was quite put out to discover that she has to take turns with her big sister, but it is still the big event of the day. Yesterday Becky had a little time to do something special with her, when asked what she wanted to do, Lillie replied "open the advent calendar!"

That is so cute! I love the last picture. She has that look of enamored cooing on her face.
